Maryse St-Denis

Bonjour!

I am fully bilingual French Canadian, born in lively Montreal. I am passionate about human development, on the inside and out! This passion started in my years as a business leader, where I got the opportunity to work with and coach a great group of colleagues so that they could grow in their positions and have fulfilling careers and create work environments imprinted with collaboration and humanity. 

After 20 years in corporate business, I pursued my passion by completing a Masters in education, specializing in adult training and development. I have since completed a 300 hours Ashtanga yoga teacher training program and a professional coaching certification and joined the healthy mind, body, spirit lifestyle industry by starting my own  business: Pragam Coaching, where I encourage my clients to integrate physical and spiritual practices to their introspection and growth journey.  I also teach personal and professional leadership and interpersonal communication to managers and students of the HR Management certificate at Carleton University.

I have a regular meditation and yoga practice at home and enjoy practicing yoga in studios as I feel the need to be connected to a community. I love to walk outdoors, by the lake or at the mountain, and swimming is my regular cardio workout. In the winter, I like to take in the fresh air as I downhill ski or snowshoe! But the warm sea breeze is always the best thing to lift my spirits up during the cold winter months...
